Responsibilities

• Define and own the product quality strategy across one or more product organizations, setting direction for test planning, automation, and quality standards
• Lead cross-functional quality programs spanning multiple products, teams, and geographic locations, driving alignment across engineering and product stakeholders
• Establish the technical direction for test strategy on high-ambiguity, business-critical initiatives to ensure product correctness and reliability at launch
• Partner with engineering and infrastructure teams to design and scale automation frameworks that prevent regressions and support long-term product reliability
• Identify systemic quality gaps and drive organization-wide adoption of improved processes, tooling, and quality-driven engineering practices
• Define and track quality metrics that measure test effectiveness, coverage, and overall product health across the portfolio
• Assess non-functional quality dimensions including accessibility, internationalization, localization, performance, and stress testing in partnership with specialized teams
• Advise and influence engineering leaders and cross-functional partners on quality tradeoffs, risk mitigation, and launch readiness decisions
• Mentor and develop quality and test engineers, sharing best practices and elevating quality standards across the organization
• Leverage data and testing insights to inform product decisions and drive measurable improvements in quality outcomes

Minimum Qualifications

• 6+ years of quality engineering or test engineering experience across consumer or business software products

• Experience implementing and maintaining test automation frameworks for mobile and web applications
• Experience coding in Python, Java, PHP, C/C++, or an equivalent programming language

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working across globally distributed engineering teams spanning multiple time zones and product domains
• Experience integrating AI tools into quality workflows to improve test coverage, efficiency, or defect detection
• Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
• Experience driving organization-wide quality initiatives and influencing engineering organizations at large scale
• Experience communicating quality strategy and risk assessments to technical and non-technical stakeholders, including executive audiences
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
• Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
